Overview

1.1

Introduction

Welcome to the MCF5253 Evaluation Board (EVB). The
EVB features the MCF5253 microcontroller, which is a
®
part of the ColdFire
family and includes a high speed
Universal Serial Bus On-The-Go (USB OTG) module.
This module is USB 2.0 compliant, contains an internal
USB physical transceiver (PHY) with a USB transceiver
macrocell interface (UTMI+), and supports device and
host mode.
